It's such an honor to represent Rhode Island in the Senate. We may be a small state, but we all know one another, we know where things are and where they used to be, and we're fiercely proud of our unique and lasting history.

Listening to constituents is one of the most important -- and meaningful -- things I get to do as your Senator. Please take a moment to share your thoughts, ideas, and questions with me here, and my office and I will get back to you.
